Is there a way to use this at start of game instead of waiting on research?

+1. I'm using a mod that gives me a blueprint at the start of the game but I don't see the button for loading a blueprint from string.

For a workaround:
The code that checks if blueprints are researched is in the control.lua file.
Find
function init_gui(player)
if (not player.force.technologies["automated-construction"].researched) then
return
end

Put "-- " before the "return" line
Like so:
function init_gui(player)
if (not player.force.technologies["automated-construction"].researched) then
-- return
end
Doing so will comment out the part that stops the UI from showing. You could just remove everything between "if" and "end" but this is easier to undo.

Hello Guys

I did comment the line for the button to show at the start, but it only shows on a new game.
If I load a game it will not show.
Any ideas?
Thanks
